Very family friendly. Lots of accommodation options as the town of Ellicottville is built around 2 ski resorts. Because of this can get quite busy on holidays and weekends but if you know where to look there are some fun hidden runs that are not too busy. Good mix of easy and more difficult runs. Not to far for Canadians like me to hop over the border for a day off you're not looking to spend the night in town.

They do a great job of making snow so we have a fighting chance of skiing during this global warming

This is one of my favourite ski resorts. Ellicottville is such a quaint town and Holiday Valley is a wonderful resort. The chalets are great and the hills boast a variety of runs for all skier and snowboarder levels. Great family resort with a welcoming ski/snowboard school. One of my favourite runs are the ones through the beautiful trees. Highly recommend to check this one out!

Seriously the best resort. Grew up going with my ski club in high school and miss those Thursday nights every single winter season. Food, runs, staff, all amazing and have no complaints! Other than the fact I havent been recently in my adult years or stayed the night!

Nestled in south western NY, the hill is smaller, but fills a lot of needs for skiers. The runs are mostly straight and doesn't really get policed to much except at the bottoms where the lifts meet together. Overall a good hill with good lake-effect snow for much of the year.

The resort is very good overall. There are many options for food and dining areas. The lessons are very informative and the instructors are knowledgeable and helpful. The rental boots helmets and skis are all well maintained and work very well.

Super good resort to travel to close to Ontario for way better skiing! Tons of runs, lift lines were good, trees were fun until I snapped my back off one, but overall sick weekend spot!
